The Splendid Fate of the Reborn First Daughter

When Zhao Xinghai returned to the palace, the prince immediately looked for him and asked him, "What did the eldest prince say?"

Zhao Xinghai blushed immediately.

Zhao Zhongliang couldn't help laughing and said, "Could it be that you gave away a beauty? Why do you have such an expression?"

But Zhao Xinghai said: "It's not about sending a beauty, but it's also related to women." He then told about Feng Yi.

Zhao Zhongliang looked at the prince and said: "That day, Xinghe said that the two maids who came to send Yu Ruyi were probably the princesses, and I laughed at him in my heart, so it turned out that he was right."

Zhao Xinghai then asked: "Should I let my mother enter the palace..."

The prince said: "Don't worry, wait for your elder brother to come back from the barracks, let's discuss it again. If you want to marry the princess and look at the scenery, you are afraid of causing trouble, so let's listen to his opinion."

Zhao Xinghai had no choice but to agree.

Zhao Zhongliang discussed with the prince, and he went back to Zhao's house in the east of the city.

Seeing him coming back, Zi Mo was very surprised: "Master, you are coming back at this time, is there something wrong?"

Zhao Zhongliang said: "There is something wrong, and I have to trouble you."

Zi Mo said, "If you have any order, just say it."

Zhao Zhongliang told about Princess Fengyi and the eldest prince, and he said to Zimo: "Xinghe is not at home, I have discussed it with my elder brother, and I want to hear Xinghe's daughter-in-law's opinion. But it is not convenient for us to come to the door, so I want you to check her out."

Zi Mo said: "It's easy, I'll take Hongyu back tomorrow..."

Zhao Zhongliang said: "Just go back by yourself. The fewer people who know about this, the better. Don't make it too public. The reputation of Princess Fengyi is locked here. Don't talk nonsense, you know?"

Zi Mo said: "I understand, master, I will go to see the princess tomorrow."

Zhao Zhongliang nodded, talked to her for a while, asked about the family affairs, and then settled down.

On the second day, Zi Mo came to Dingbei Palace deliberately in a carriage.

Xia Yuwei heard that she came alone, and knowing that something was wrong, she was led to her yard.

Xia Yuwei asked her: "Every time you come back, you bring Hongyu with you. This time you come alone, you must have something important?"

Zi Mo said, "Please screen me off."

Xia Yuwei glanced at Yingge, Yingge immediately led everyone in the room back out.

Only then did Zi Mo talk about Princess Fengyi, and she said, "Our lord has said it, and both he and the lord want to hear your opinion on this matter."

Xia Yuwei said: "I know about this, but if there is only Princess Fengyi, then just marry in. She is the eldest princess, she has a high status, and she really likes Xinghai. There is nothing wrong with that, but now that the eldest prince is stepping in, this matter will be difficult to handle. If she doesn't marry, she will offend the queen. If she marries, she will be inseparable from the eldest prince. This matter is related to seizing the first son, so we must be cautious."

Zi Mo said, "Then what do you mean..."

Xia Yuwei said: "In two days, the prince will return from the barracks. I will discuss it with him."

Zi Mo stopped mentioning it, chatted with Xia Yuwei for a while, and then left.

The eldest prince returned to his mansion. After waiting for a few days, there was no movement in Prince Ning's mansion. He couldn't help sighing that such a good marriage was also so prudent. No wonder, Prince Ning's mansion has stood upright for many years, and his heart became more and more enthusiastic.

Finally, Zhao Xinghe returned from the barracks.He didn't go to Prince Ning's Mansion, but went home to meet Xia Yuwei first.

Xia Yuwei withdrew her servants and discussed with Zhao Xinghe: "This matter, what do you think should be done?"

Zhao Xinghe said: "I accepted your letter and thought about it for a few days, but there is no good solution."

Xia Yuwei said: "Our family is already a family with two kings. Wealth is extremely high, so we don't need to covet any merits of support, but now it is inevitable to win the heir. Our family can't be alone. After all, we still have to have an attitude. We escaped the first prince today. I'm afraid the second prince will come to recruit us. If we refuse, we will offend him. Who knows who will win the battle in the end. Offending the two princes, I'm afraid it will be the root of disaster in the future. It is trying to figure out the holy will. How about this..."

Xia Yuwei looked at Zhao Xinghe and said: "You might as well go and find out what the emperor has said. If the emperor says that this marriage is not suitable, it naturally means to favor the second prince. If the emperor says that this marriage is very suitable, it is natural that he wants us to assist the eldest prince. We don't express our opinion, we just obey the holy order, and there will be no mistakes."

Zhao Xinghe thought for a while and said: "This is also a way. I have to let the emperor know that our Zhao family is only loyal to the emperor, and we will assist whoever the emperor likes. This is indeed the attitude that a courtier should have."

After the two discussed it, Zhao Xinghe handed over a message to see you.

The next day, after the morning court, the emperor summoned Zhao Xinghe.

Zhao Xinghe said: "Your Majesty, I have a problem."

The emperor was very surprised: "But what happened in the army?"

Zhao Xinghe said: "It's not in the army, it's the family business of the humble minister."

The emperor asked: "What's the matter with Aiqing, why not tell me and listen."

Zhao Xinghe said: "Your Majesty, I have a younger brother who is a direct relative, and that is Zhao Xinghai, the deputy commander of the imperial guards. He told me a few days ago that the Eldest Prince invited him to a banquet and wanted to be a matchmaker for him."

The emperor's face changed slightly, and he asked, "Which family is the girl from?"

Zhao Xinghe said: "It's Princess Fengyi under the empress's knees."

The emperor was furious: "How dare he act as a matchmaker for Feng Yi! He..."

Qin Daban coughed suddenly, the emperor calmed down slowly, he asked Zhao Xinghe: "Then Zhao Xinghai agrees?" Zhao Xinghe said: "Princess Fengyi, the celestial girl, is of high status and outstanding talent and appearance, my younger brother is of course very satisfied, but my minister told him, Yulu Jun's kindness comes from above, our Zhao family has been loyal and good for generations, and only the emperor obeys, so today I am here to ask for an order.

The emperor was silent for a while: "I have to think about this matter, you should go back first."

Zhao Xinghe kowtowed and left the Palace of Qinzheng.

Qin Daban watched him go out and couldn't help sighing.

The emperor asked him: "What's wrong with you? Sigh for no reason."

Qin Daban said: "If you go back to the emperor, I think that King Dingbei is really smart and handsome, and the world can't match him."

The emperor asked, "Why did you say that?"

Qin Daban said: "This Zhao Xinghe doesn't say whether the Zhao family is willing or not, but only that Jun's kindness comes from above. He wants to say that all their Zhao family only obeys the emperor. If you are willing, they will make friends with the eldest prince and support him. If you are not willing, they will reject the eldest prince. Let's see the situation. The key to this matter is not Princess Fengyi, but your attitude towards the eldest prince."

The emperor also sighed: "But, it's too early to make a statement now."

Qin Daban said: "The two princes have grown up. No matter what you do, you will not be able to avoid the competition between them. It's better to express your opinion early, and it's better to express your opinion later."

The emperor smiled: "I let you tell, is it good morning or good evening?"

Qin Daban said: "Whichever you say is better, that is fine."
